If you've been glancing at your last tax assessment and assuming that's the real number, it's time for a reality check. The market in Du Filgate has been moving - and not always in the direction the city's paperwork suggests. Here's the straight story on what's happening on your street.
Let's break it down, because houses and condos are telling two very different stories in our neighbourhood right now.
Houses: If you own a house here, the average HonestDoor Price sits at $564,665 - up 2.21% from the previous period. That's a real, data-driven number. The average sale price on record is $600,000, and price per square foot is running around $667. The predicted market value is $552,476, which is dipping slightly below the 3-month moving average of $557,605. So values are holding up, but they're taking a small breather. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, houses in Du Filgate rank 8 out of 8 for growth in Chateauguay - that puts us at the bottom of the pack right now. Price rank is a healthier 3 out of 6, so we're above average in what homes are actually worth, even if the growth momentum has slowed.
Condos: The condo picture is a bit more nuanced. The average HonestDoor Price is $391,325, which has dipped 2.68% from the previous period. But here's the flip side - the predicted market value is $402,102, which actually sits higher than nearby De Salaberry condos at $390,429. So we're holding our own against the competition. On the leaderboard, condo growth in Du Filgate ranks 3 out of 8 in Chateauguay - that's above average, and a much better position than our houses are sitting in right now.
Here's the thing about government assessments - they're snapshots from the past. By the time that number lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved on. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling from actual sales data and current market signals. It's the number a serious buyer would use to make an offer today, not the number a city clerk calculated two years ago.
For house owners in Du Filgate, the HonestDoor Price of $564,665 is your real-world check. Compare that to the predicted value of $552,476 and the actual sale average of $600,000, and you get a much clearer picture of where you stand. For condo owners, that $391,325 HonestDoor Price against a predicted value of $402,102 tells you there may be more upside than the headline number suggests.
Waiting for the next assessment cycle to understand your equity? That's leaving money on the table.
If you own a house and you've been on the fence, here's the honest take. Values are still solid - a $600,000 average sale price and $667 per square foot are not numbers to dismiss. But the growth rank of 8 out of 8 tells us this is not a moment where the market is doing the heavy lifting for sellers. You need to price sharp and present well. The buyers who are active right now know their numbers.
Nearby, De Salaberry is averaging $569,048 and De Robutel is at $566,551 for houses - both slightly ahead of Du Filgate. That gap is small, but it matters when a buyer is comparing streets.
For condo owners, the story is more encouraging. A growth rank of 3 out of 8 puts Du Filgate condos in a competitive spot, and sitting above De Salaberry in predicted value is a genuine selling point. If your condo is in good shape, this summer is a reasonable window to test the market.
Bottom line - check your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It takes two minutes and it gives you the real number, not the government's best guess from last year.
